    It tells you there’s a name clash, and then it clones it anyway and you end up with the contents of README.MD in README.md as an unstaged change.

      sounds like actually a good solution … tho doesnt sound like it would work for more than 2 similarly-named files

        I don’t think it’s intended as a “solution”, it just lets the clobbering that is caused by the case insensitiveness happen.

        So git just goes:

        If you add a third or fourth file … it would just continue, and file gets checked out first gets the filename and whichever file gets checked out last, gets the content.
